Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

16 ounces = 1 pound

Cost of blueberries at grocery store, 8 ounce = $2.80

8 ounce =  \frac{8}{16} = 0.5 pound

Cost of blueberries at grocery store per pound = \frac{2.80}{0.5} = $5.60

Cost of blueberries at farmers market, 14 ounces = $4.20

14 ounces =  \frac{14}{16} = 0.875 pounds

Cost of blueberries  at farmers market per pound = \frac{4.20}{0.875} = $4.80

Per pound cost of blueberries at grocery store = $5.60

Per pound cost of blueberries at farmers market = $4.80

Difference between the cost = 5.60 - 4.80 = $0.80

So the option c is accurately compares the cost of blueberries. " Blueberries are $0.80 per pound less expensive at the farmer's market.

Grocery store : 2.80/8 = 0.35.....so its 35 cents per oz.----0.35(16) = 5.60 per lb
farmers market : 4.20/14 = 0.3...so its 30 cents per oz --- 0.30(16) = 4.80 per lb

5.60 - 4.80 = 0.80.....answer is : blueberries are 80 cents per pound less expensive at the farmers market

Given: ABCD is a parallelogram and AC bisects BD.<br> Prove: AB is congruent to BC.
earnstyle [38]

Let's see

In ∆ABE and ∆CBE

  • BE=BE(Common side)
  • AE=EC[Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other]
  • <AEB=<BEC[90°]

So by

SAS congruence the triangles are congruent

AB=BC

  • Proved

Fact:-

It's already given AC is perpendicular to BD

  • It means diagonals are perpendicular to each other

According to general property of rhombus this parallelogram is also a rhombus.

So sides are equal hence AB =BC

The product of some negative number and 5 less than three times that number is 12. Find the number.
miv72 [106K]
(x)(3x - 5) = 12
3x^2 - 5x = 12
3x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
(x - 3)(3x + 4) = 0
x = 3, -4/3
The answer must be negative so the number is -4/3.

Hope this helps!
